Looks pretty fun. These people have serious mt. bikes with skis attached to them. I can't imagine what a different experience this must be.



I'd give it a try ....

They have those for rent at Pats Peak. I heard they are only fun in powder at least a few inches of fresh

I'm on this bus! Start spreading the rumor that everyone should rent a snow bike and stick to the bunny hill on powder days!

At least if you endo in powder it's a soft landing

I kind of like skiing because of its simplicity. (theoretically ... i realize there is a lot of gear to go around!). Still, would be fun to try.

this kind of reminds me of the sit skis except more ... bikey

Saw a couple of 12 year olds using similar ski bikes at Jay the other day. I'd give it a try, but IMO it seems kindof lame.

I like the "skiies" if you know what I mean, can't call them wheelies. I'd like to see a back flip on one, how about a double. They look like they ride them well. At least they won't be sitting on their asses if they congregate on the downhill side of a rise. Are they welcome at MRG? How about Jack Jumpers?
